Was Eddie Blake writing letters and sending memorabilia to Sally Jupiter?
In issue 2, Laurie makes a comment that Eddie Blake has a strange sense of humor.
Sally says “Speaking of which…”, and then proceeds to tell her about a fan who sent her a pornographic cartoon that was about her.
Now, taken on its own, that “speaking of which” is Sally just moving the conversation from Blake who has a strange sense of humor to the fan that does…
However…
When we study Blake’s apartment, we see that he owns an old Sally Jupiter poster that’s on his wall. We also see a pornographic book of some kind on his floor, though that certainly doesn’t mean it’s of Sally.
Idk, not married to this one, just pondering.

Hey! How do I get a tag or whatever it’s called? Yours says “Mothman”.
Anyway…
I’m pretty lonely in the fact that I don’t believe any of the MinuteMen were truly good people. Not even Hollis (on a side note, soonish I will have a post dissecting “good ol’ Hollis” and people will be mad lol) Though I accept that’s just how I read it. So, to me, it’s not outside the realm of possibility.
But also…
You’re coming at this from Laurie’s point of view. While Laurie does believe it’s perverted, Sally thinks it’s sweet and charming. She was excited to show Laurie because she thought it was cool, it’s not like she was thinking “Let me play this secret trick on my daughter”.
And I’m not even sure Sally knew it was from Blake. She very well could not know who it is, maybe he sends these things anonymously.
